Your call Mr. B

I'm fine with letting it go. My cheif concern is that it was the principle thing bringing me to the site. I'd come to post and look around.

Well, if you don't want to post here, you don't have to post here. No one is forcing you to stay here.

(though Hawk may start making death threats to any of your pets)

Its not a question of being forced or not wanting to, its just that I have a lot of 'regular' sites, but some are more regular than others.

And all our pets are, technically, the wife's.

Well, we've got a really tight-knit group here and I like to think you're part of it.

Does she want my pets too?

bad signal
WARREN ELLIS

New record for the internet: the sick jokes started within seven femtoseconds of the announcement of his death.

In case you've been unplugged today -- Heath Ledger's dead. In case you missed the details, he was found naked in Mary-Kate Olsen's Manhattan apartment, pills scattered around his body and dead as ____ing hell of a cardiac arrest most probably induced by an overdose.

I like to think that, in his final hours, he sat there and considered: I'm definitely going to kill myself, but how can I give it that extra edge that the media love? How about.. I break into the home of a beloved one-time child actress, take off all my clothes and rub myself all over her bed first? Yes, that's the ticket, no better way to completely ____ up the life of my two-year-old daughter than to leave behind a Legendary Sleazy Suicide... what the hell, Cobain's kid will probably be selling her Vicodin in a few years anyway...

Heath Ledger, then. Entered film like a lion. Left the world like a limp prick with spots on it.

What a douche. :roll:

And where has Mr. Bird been?

He stopped posting here because all he was doing was updating the Bad Signal thread.

Warren Ellis will be Warren Ellis.

He tries too hard at times - this is one of those times. He just comes across as looking a prat just now.

I remember this place!

Keb's right. After a while it seemed that whenever I was on I was here by myself and most of the posting I was doing was either linking to a review or updating this thread, so I let it go. I see most of you elsewhere, anyway.

I am not going to get back in the habit of posting Ellis' Bad Signal, but the next day's started with:

As an interesting aside to the drama yesterday -- for which I
should apologise, I just have a hair trigger for that kind of
thing (and also for spin and crocodile tears) and don't always
take the time to level out before becoming Mr Shouty...

There's a lot more traffic here nowadays, David - it would be lovely to have you around more regularly again!

So he's egg on his face for reading TMZ too regularly and he manned up and apologized? Good on him. :-)
